The Land Transfer Laws of Australasia

In this book, also received from Mr Wilfred Badger, of Christchurch, we have au equally well-finished work, forming a very satisfactory twin publieationjwith the "Licensing Laws" ahovenamed. It is slightly thicker "volume that it is twin sister, but like that work built on similar lines, comprising within its ** strings" the full text (with side-notes) of the Land Transfer or " Torrens' " Acts of the six Colouies of New South Wales, New Zealand, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, and Victoria, each Act being with its forms fully indexed, the whole being followed by a digest of 221 Land Transfer decisions of the Supreme and Appeal Courts of the <3olonies touched by the work, carefully collated, referenced, cross referenced, and indexed. These cases are again alphabetically arranged and made more easy of reference, and are followed by an index to plaintiffs and defendants, to defendants separately, and to abbreviated references. Mention should not be omitted of the valuable addition of Intercolonial sectional reference, in like manner as in the " Licensing Laws," being; alike indicative of the writer's aystein. and methods. Both works contain interesting introductions and copious notes and are admirably indexed, so that reference is greatly facilitated. They are printed at the Lytteiton Times office and are published at a very reasonable price.
